Question

Following the Mata Ortiz pottery technique, Mexican sculptor Juan Quezada Celado starts by creating the base of the pot with a slab of clay. blank he builds the pot walls by layering coils of clay around the perimeter of the base. Celado then smooths out the pot’s walls with a hacksaw blade. At last, the pot is ready to be painted.

Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?

Accepted Answer

Choice D is the best answer. "Next" logically signals that the information in this sentence-which explains how Celado builds the pot&rsquo;s walls-is the next step in Celado&rsquo;s pot creation process. The sentences that follow further signal this information by completing the process. Choice A is incorrect because "for example" illogically signals that the information about Celado building pot walls in this sentence exemplifies the information in the previous sentence about how Celado&rsquo;s pot creation process begins. Instead, it is the next step in this process. Choice B is incorrect because "however" illogically signals that the information in this sentence contrasts with the information in the previous sentence about how Celado&rsquo;s pot creation process begins. Instead, it is the next step in this process. Choice C is incorrect because "by contrast" illogically signals that the information in this sentence contrasts with the information in the previous sentence about how Celado&rsquo;s pot creation process begins. Instead, it is the next step in this process.
